The best thing I've seen regarding green energy and the energy question as a whole: http://www.city-journal.org/2009/19_2_carbon.html. The guy who wrote it has too much horse sense to get through to the posturing nabobs out there, but he gives it a solid effort. I know that every time I drive west on IH-10 through Texas, I see more and more wind turbines on mesas and wonder just what is the end result from these things. As the article indicates, a few more nuclear plants would dwarf the whole enterprise. The French have 'em in spades and we know how much more civilized and refined they are than us, so why not?
